stop the engine. Begine to work after the engine and
radiator are sufficiently cooled

DO NOT remove the radiator cap until the engine is
cool. When opening, turn the cap slowly to the stop.
Allow all pressure to be release before removing the
cap.
•
The hydraulic oil tank is pressurized. Again, be sure to
release all pressure by slowly removing the cap.
Hot fluids and surfaces:
